MSI techs sent me a new BIOS to try on my 890FXA-GD65, but I still cannot get my G.Skill RipjawXs running on the 1866 divider with my FX-4100.
The RAM is rated 2133 CL9 (2x4GB). G.Skill techs blame the CPU.
I have tried loosening timings, raising DRAM voltage, raising CPU-NB and voltage, ect.
I can get the RAM to run at 1800 CL8 stable using the 1600 divider and 225 reference clock.
I cannot keep this board stable with any reasonable HT reference clock, always unstable before I can hit 230.
Even still, I can't boot up using the 1866 divider at all.
So, here I am, asking for suggestions.
Maybe it is a certain RAM timing that I am overlooking? I'm not so familiar with the secondary and tertiary timings/drive strengths. I basically tried both the SPD and XMP timings, and also loosened the SPD timings without any luck.
I have noticed that since installing the FX chip that the motherboard chipset northbridge feels much hotter to the touch, although I don't see any high temperatures in HW Monitor, AMD Overdrive, ect.
Right now my OC is 100% stable and cool, but you know how it is, you got to push the envelope, especially when one component not quite running at spec.
CPU 4500mhz (225x20) 1.46v
CPU-NB 2700mhz (x12 and that is the multiplier cap) 1.27v
HT Link 2700mhz (tried lowering this to AM3 spec, but didn't help)
DRAM 1800mhz (225x800) 1.65V with timings shown below:
If no suggestions work, then next week I'm going back to a motherboard brand that I trust, probably the Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
